UK media. Ask Labour about the Chinese, don't ask Farage about Russian bribes, or mysterious bankrolling of Leave. If you do minimise it, laugh it off. Repeat the process for Russian money swilling through the Tory party.
The majority of the British media stinks.
It's as bent as a corkscrew.

Worth remembering by the time Farage first appeared on Russian TV Alexander Litvinenko had been poisoned in UK dying in agony, along with 13 other suspected Russian hits..

Yet Farage the “patriot” jumped into bed with them❗️

When Farage and I were growing up (similar age) Russia was the enemy, we were both in cadets, Russia was the Army’s foe

Villains in Movies & books were Russian.. those who helped Russia were traitors

Fun fact 👉🏼 Besides spending £74K on a new office, Andrea Jenkyns wanted £147K in Sept to hire ppl to answer her emails. Unlike previous mayors it’s below her to do it

This is from their website👇🏼

“We should slash wasteful spending”

So slash it by spending more £’s on them and less on public then 🤷🏼‍♂️
